in europe? >> absolutely. and i think -- successive leaderers in germany have shied away from the fact that german voters who have to pay more if they want this kind of -- more unified europe. they're going to have to pay out of their own pockets for countries like greece if they're going to stay in the euro zone and things not to fall apart. but this s has been shied away from. it's been con speckiusly avoided by german leaders one after another since helmut kohl. >> not always were -- the strongest power was in europe economic -- economically seen. if you just look at the first years after the currency union and the single currency, you see that germany was the sick man of europe. so that was a completely different talk then. melinda: because those were also the first years followingn unification. let us now, however, turn to the present. in the past few years, it has looked as though helmut kohl might live long enough to see the house that he had built shaken absolutely to its foundations. let's look at a f

the changing face of europe.idnations receiving dollars have their counterpart funds to good work. hydroelectrics, plants. factories there was ever-growing roar and bustle, the marshall plan was reconstruction. nato was the shield. now they were working for peace. working for themselves and working for tomorrow. the council of europe was meeting and at their conference there were many european nations. discussing the future of their countries. the council had not accepted their powers and could only advise the government on their power. it was at least a common meeting place where europe could be me that scene. a start that was a long way to go. the arteries of the continent might be throbbing with , there were still age-old barriers. seemed atomic bombs would shift towards rubberstamps, towards the roman cathedrals. yet the solution was is you that anyone had mentioned. unity the needs of trade would push down the walls. once the coal mines of the czars with the crucible of war. haveut them war would resorted to

tunisia, we said all of europe 6500 and tunisia has is awfully close to europe. that is my concern. they simply do not have the capacity nor the intelligence assets that we have. so if you're interested in helping out in europe, the next step is actually to broaden that cooperation and try to find a way to help egypt help tunisia, help jordan to a certain extent make sure they can absorb and reintegrate their foreign fighter returnees and those are very very large numbers that are coming home. >> i will do on that. we already have seen, but you think we will see more border control measures put in place? less free travel? we've seen germany, france to a little but of that. -- definitelyry hungary. at least through their countries. do you think europe will address the open border situation and see more of a return to border controls or do think it will continue with the open border situation that we have now? dr. craig, i will address at you. whichever one wins to answer but we are on the clock. >> i have not spoken to european officials so i do not know what they intend to do. offic

europe gave birth to us we come from europe. why have all of the things that we have taken from europe, why can't europe learn from the united states on how people who come? we are an immigrant country. everybody has come from all over the world to make us who we are today. why cannot europeans who have been around many more centuries thanwe have, learn that simple lesson? >> one of things that we did not carry with us one came from europe is religious discrimination. that is why we enshrine, in the and the endment, castration itself no religious test does . the religious acceptance and unique.ion was it is 90 we borrowed from europe. they have never had that kind of openness from all religious faith that the united states have. i'm ronot trying to say this in embarrassment, armstrong, i would agree that the incidence in terrorism by immigrants are and those who are muslim are far less than in europe. that does not relate whether it's by vehicle orterrorism or terrorism by guns. that is, as you say, even if there are incidences

and we've seen it replicated across europe. in fact, russia's active measures are only growing bolder and more brazen in the digital age. russia has interfered or attempted to interfere in elections in france, the netherlands, the baltics to the balkans. including support for far right and far left parties, opposed to historically successful european institutions in post world war ii western alliances. for example, russia has provided support and financial assistance to the far-right party of marine le pen in france in a very blatant and obvious way. russia's launched cyber attacks against political parties and government institutions in several western countries. they've also released stolen information in an effort to steer elections in a particular direction. and as we saw in the french elections with their release of information about then candidate macron. germany's parliament has been cyber attacked, with members' e-mailed hacked and stolen. most observers express this stolen information to be utilized before this fall's

the story in europe is by europe.that you get reforms from european politicians, early today, matt miller spoke to the german finance minister in an exclusive interview. a goodink we have more thany now to get the european development. some days ago, a good friend of we are ready to make any reform but only in line with law. jonathan: still with us is mike wilson of-- mike morgan stanley and gina martin adams of bloomberg intelligence. when i first moved over here, somebody said you are going to witness one thing, a very binary view of u.s. based investors on europe. either super bullish or get out of there quickly. kind of nothing in between. we are out on the west side, super bullish seems to be the field. the you share it? mr. wilson: we had that view last year where people were nervous after brexit. we felt like things have gotten way too cheap in europe relative to the u.s. so we wrote that wave. we wrote it through the italian referendum and the french elections and now we actually prefer the u.s. back to europe

number two is in europe.u think there is a place you want to invest in europe more than the other? is it smarter to get into france them to germany. is there a place that is cheaper, with a better trajectory? ewen: i think it depends on the anatomy of the underlying stock market. if you think of europe as one big currency zone, it depends on the anatomy of the specific market. that explains why one is cheap relative to another. the focus is on domestically orientated businesses right now, although recently, there has been a bit of a pick up in interest to emerging markets. also, there is a big focus on shareholders value for some of the european listing global consumer syphilis companies. matt: you're going to -- consumer companies. matt: up next, check in on your market movers. we are going to show you what is going on in this gaining equity market right now. we're seeing another day of gains in europe. if we continue on this rise, we will get positive for the month. we are .7% of that on the stoxx 600. we w

on should we have more europe or less europe and we've seen a bit of that in the uk because we saidd you —— move towards that binary debate, try and account for very different views on the continent and make them feel like they are part of this debate over the future of europe. it cannot have a situation where you got ordinary voters feeling fundamentally differently about issues like the refugee crisis and you've got say, business and political elite feeling quite at ease with how that issue is being managed because in the long one that's not going to put europe in a good, positive forward looking place. there are still quite a lot of work to be done across the continent. would you say overall this leaves you feeling bad people in europe can be optimistic about the future of europe or that we could see other countries pushing for their own exit from the european union? well we asked voters across nine countries when we excluded the uk, do you think more member states will leave in the next ten years and the majority of european voters said yes, we think more countries will leave. w

in europe stronger. i think martin schultz will withstand that as much as he does that in other crises in terms of, for instance, the situation in turkey. angela merkel doesn't say much about that, and i think in germany many voters will expect that german leader would say to donald trump certain moments won't go with us in situation where we have brexit and difficult developments in terms of relations to russia, we have turkey and threat through international terrorism and all that kind of thing, i think social democrats have good chances as record of party of peace and good european records and therefore i think that will play a major role this time. >> mr. stegner, thank you for joining us, the deputy leader of the social democratic party of germany. >>> let's look at the european markets. we see positive markets. ftse is up a half percent. also up a half percent in paris. up four-fifths of one percent. in italy, seeing it lift more than one percent if you look at the european sectors, we seafoe food

but we in america and europe have to learn from this experience. and try to avoid that in the future. second, the u.s. and europe should adopt stronger sanctions against russia for its actions to weaken our lebses. we learned an important lesson in the iran nuclear negotiations in the obama and george w. bush administrations. the swarnings much more effective when the united states and e.u. aligned them together, specifically the financial sanctions. i hope the house of representatives will back and not dilute in this sense the very strong senate sanctions bill against moscow you passed by a 97-2 margin two weeks ago. in my view it would be a great mistake for president trump to veto such a bill. with our long national two-century ry debate about the separation of powers in mind, i do think congress, it's time for the congress and not the president, to lead the american response to russia's cyberattack on the united states. the president has shown that he's unwilling to act against russia and that is why the congressional review provision in your s

it can only be europe as europe.so we need our neighbors, our friends, our you a lies -- our allies to pick up some of this as well. europe is not the kind of political project that one large state can lead. that's not how it works. germans and german politicians are deeply aware of that. those kinds of stickers are not particularly helpful. tarun: i'd like to talk a little bit about the point of resilience that richard made. richard, you noted that there's a large delta, i think it's about 35 points, between the meeting percentage of respondents that had no confidence in donald trump and the median unfavorable view of the united states. it was 74% to 39%. is that delta sustainable based on previous survey data? is that something you expect to converge over time? what's your sense? richard: obviously how the world feels about the u.s. president and u.s. foreign policies does have a big impact on how the world sees the u.s. we know from our surveys that it's complicated too. there are lots of things that influence how

for europe? as opposed to going into units? >> so, i think it initially, yes, it will go towards the abcts there in europe. i'll get you probably need to look a little deeper into that before to give you a more complete answer, but right now i know that's where the priority is. >> so this will be your last question. >> okay. yes, sir. >> could you talk a little bit about what was the bill -- what's the 18 budget to grow? the congress directed to grow by 50,000, i guess. 26. what's the bill this year? and what's the bill in the fib? dollar for dollar -- i mean, how much more does the army have to get to sustain the growth in this year? >> so to grow the army from -- as you're well aware, we were in a pretty -- well, we were going down to 450, 476 and so right now fully burden cost we're projected to be about $2.8 billion for the entire 26,000 that you're referring to. that includes the training money, the instillation support and the -- that was what we costed that out to be. >> and is that going

judge jeanine: when change comes as quickly as it's done in europe, it will change the character of europeis that a bad thing? >> it doesn't have to be a bad thing. countries and cultures change slowly all the time. but when they change at this swiftness, there is a very, very significant problem coming. i traveled across the entire continent. there are places in europe that would be utterly unrecognizable. this is about ideas and the ideas people bring with them. some of those idea as we have seen in the rise of things like sharia courts in the u.k., in the rise of extremism and intolerance courts women and ethnic and religious and sexual minorities is worrying. judge jeanine: how do you have sharia court in the u.k. there is a move to prevent the effort to have sharia courts. how did it happen so easily in the u.k.? >> it came in through the back door where you can volunteer for arbitration pretty inch any system you like. the sharia courts offered to do it that way. they are not meant to supersede british law. but i have spoken to people judged in sharia courts and it's clear they do su

0pinion polls across europe ask people, do you want new treaties, more integration, more federal europermany, hungary, italy, poland, spain, many other countries, the answer is, at the moment, overwhelmingly no. well, let's see how you ask the question. if we look at what are the big themes in the world today — climate change, fighting terror, handling migration. everyone knows that there is no single country in itself who can handle that. and if some people say we want some parts in europe which are less, i could agree. i want less european democracy, definitely. but i want more european integration related to fighting terror. i want more european integration in having a stronger army that works together. yes, i understand there is too much european democracy, bureaucracy, excuse me! but in working together for certain courses i think we find each other, and i honestly think that in the discussion with the united kingdom we will come back on certain topics. yes, we have to discuss the brexit but when we are fighting terror we have the same interests. and instead of what we see from tim

there is up 40 basis points negative cap a rate in europe. -- depot rate in europe.ple are taking it, taking it, taking it. you get a bit of a spread there as well. what they need to do is change their mandate. if i offered you a 30 year in italy with a 3.5% coupon come is that something you would be interested in? give me a thesis around the career death in europe right now. unless i was an insurance company and i needed coupon income to hedge my liabilities. the european economy is starting to improve, and ecb at some point we'll have to start to normalize rates. i'm not saying today or tomorrow, but you are loin your money for 30 years with some credit risks. the only reason that would work as you have some big geopolitical issue or massive correction in equities markets that people want that duration, but that is a hard call if that will happen. jonathan: where in europe in the fixed income space, and you can go anywhere, are you constructed anywhere? would you get long anything? >> europe is really difficult for us. as mentioned earlier, rates at the short end a

nowhere in europe has the division of germany and europe more clearly evident than here. longingels also for freedom and togetherness. here, the necessity of dialogue and cooperation behind -- beyond borders becomes clear. this wall stands between the hopes and wishes of the people. for that reason, it has no future.

today from being the envy of europe, we are the laughing stock of europe. look where we are today.have got inflation six times where it was, from half a percent to over a percent in wage growth. we are now quite apart from nowpe being in mess and europe is going faster than the u.k. people are beginning to realize, hang on, what have we done? if you look at all the polls for quickly after the elections, the people are saying one, we think the economy is important and to markets are important over and above immigration. i was reading a poll, even leavers who put immigration a top priority are reducing the priority and seeing the importance of the economy and the european union in the markets. francine: i've seen a lot of polls and for me it is not that clear cut. there are still a lot of people saying if there was a second referendum today, which is unclear that there is because no major party said they would try it'set out of brexit, unclear the way people would vote. lord bilimoria: the problem is that people keep talking about and people -- we are good about respecting the democr

that is why europe needs a less america first and a bit more europe first.
